Audiobooks, where art thou?

I've taken to listening to audiobooks on the drive to work. Its a nice way to get educated and relax. So far its been a mix of 60% educational and 40% fiction.

The problem is, where to get good audiobooks? I'm rather tired of the Audible user interface, its hard to search the catalog. For an Amazon based company, its appalling. Buying CD's from Amazon direct is not for me, I prefer digital downloads, they take up less space and frankly, they will sit on my ipod anyway, so why not buy them in that form. Lastly the iTunes store is just pants.

You'd think someone would nab this market with ease right?
